Top 3 must-have exercise products of 2017

Exercising can be hard, but luckily there are a few new items out there that'll help you knock off pounds, improve your performance and keep things clean in your gym bag. Donna Ruko has the top three must-have exercise products of 2017.

1. ActivMotionBar

This could the only time hitting the bar improves your balance and flattens your stomach. Shifting weights inside put you off balance as you row, sway or hold the bar, challenging those all-important core muscles. Pick one up for around $80.

2. FORM Lifting

This is a strength training gadget that wants to super charge your squats. Its goal is to help you train smarter, by attaching a collar to the bar that holds your weights and an app gives you info like lift drive, speed and force. Those metrics should help you improve your technique. Pick one up for around $250.

3. Paqsule

This is a gym bag that wants to clean itself. It uses UV-C light and activated oxygen to deodorize, sanitize and kill bacteria, hopefully taking the funk out of your bag. It also has USB chargers and storage compartments. It cleaned up on crowdfunding and plans to ship in June. It'll eventually retail for around $350.
